Jason was at BYU when Urban Meyer brough his "team down south" and other toxicity from the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry (which is one reason it's so funny, it's not even an original idea). Jason was a first-hand witness to the turn the rivaly took from that point forward.
I get if Utah PR or coaches didn't want to bring BYU up in their promo video. But, it would have been easy enough to just tell your history/credentials without naming schools. "I first went the JC route and then D1 for two years..." or something like that. There was no reason to give into the pettiness of Whitt.
Oh well, I'm still holding out hope that, like Kalani and others, the Beck's time at Utah will not affect their being true blue and that, if he's successful, will move on quickly from there.
